A WETHERSPOONS landlady and two men have been knifed in a stabbing spree with three arrested.
The “horrendous” sequence of events took place at the Navigation Inn, Birmingham, at around 11.15pm yesterday.
All three were taken to hospital with stab wounds, where they remain.
A spokesperson for Wetherspoons has described the “horrendous incident” as “completely out of character” in line with how the pub has previously been managed.
They described how the pub is “well established” in the local community.
They added: “We will assist the police in any way possible.
“The manager was taken to hospital and does need surgery but it is not thought to be life threatening.
“It was a horrendous incident and our thoughts are with the three people in hospital.”
Both injured men have subsequently been arrested and cops have urged anyone with information to come forward.
West Midlands police confirmed they have arrested a 19-year-old man after they pursued a vehicle just after midnight.
He remains in custody on suspicion of attempted murder.
Search teams have since been seen scouring the area for clues and weapons.
West Midlands Police have said they are carrying out CCTV and house to house enquiries.
A spokesperson for the force said: “Anyone with information, including CCTV, dashcam or mobile phone footage from the area, should get in touch via Live Chat or 101, quoting log 4653 of 25 January.”
